Just ordered a Sony UX180P to replace the Nokia 770 Internet Tablet which is now on Ebay. It’s amazing what Sony have done with this. Its a full fledged PC running Windows XP Pro with built in wireless, bluetooth and EDGE so you can connect to the internet pretty much anywhere. Looks really cool and hopefully it will arrive tomorrow. I’ll say one thing for the US, they certainly know how to deliver things quickly.
Promises so much, delivers very little. I bought one of these a while back thinking how cool would it be to wander around the house but still keep in touch with the outside world.
The idea being I could check my emails away from my PC either in the garden, the sauna, on the jetty or even during the adverts on TV in the lounge. At first it looked great but I found that once it had downloaded your emails, unless you read them straight away they would just disappear and there was no way of getting them back. I’m a man and men don’t usually read instruction books so at first I thought I was doing something wrong. I tried to find information about this in the instructions and also Nokia’s website but just gave up in the end.
My Nokia 770 Internet tablet was confined to it’s box and later put up for sale on Ebay. Perhaps someone will have better luck with it than I did.
